Shipyards currently use the cleaning process is mostly sandblasting, and water sandblasting, can be paired with 4 ~ 5 guns, efficiency in 70 ~ 80 square meters per hour, the cost is about 5 million, and poor working environment, because after the water sandblasting wash are mud, not easy to handle, and the impact on the environment, so many shipyards are looking for a new process to replace sandblasting.
Advantages of laser cleaning machine:
1. Non-contact cleaning, no cleaning media
Laser cleaning is the use of high-energy laser beam irradiation to be cleaned workpiece surface, through selective vaporization, ablation, shock waves, thermal elasticity and other effects will be removed from the surface of the workpiece pollutants. Cleaning process without cleaning media, can avoid the traditional cleaning of serious substrate damage (particle cleaning), media residue (chemical cleaning) and other issues, the damage to the substrate to an acceptable range.
2. Green environmental protection
Laser cleaning fumes can be collected through the dust collector, easy to handle, no secondary products generated, the impact on the environment will be reduced to a minimum.
3. Diversified mode of operation
Laser cleaning can be divided into hand-held and automatic cleaning. Handheld cleaning by the operator to carry mobile laser cleaning equipment, handheld laser head for cleaning. Automatic cleaning will be laser cleaning system and robot, crawler robot, AGV and other equipment integration, can achieve accurate and efficient cleaning.
4. Can clean a variety of types of pollutants
Whether the material to be removed is organic, metal, oxide or inorganic non-metal, laser cleaning can be removed. This is any other traditional methods do not have the advantage, so that it can be widely used in the removal of surface dirt, paint, rust, film and other areas.
5. Low operating costs
Laser cleaning does not use consumables, operating costs compared with traditional methods have advantages.
Laser cleaning machine belongs to an environmentally friendly cleaning process, laser cleaning cleaning residues are solid, a set of dust collection system can be processed, quite convenient, the cost is also cheaper than water blasting.
